Abstract
We are interested in leaning efficient codes to represent classes of different images. The image classes are modeled using an ICA mixture model that assumes that the data was generated by several mutually exclusive data classes whose components are a mixture of non-Gaussian sources. The parameters of the model can be adapted using an approximate expectation maximization approach to maximize the data likelihood. We demonstrate that this method can learn classes of efficient codes to represent images that contain a variety of different structures. The learned codes can be used for image compression, de-noising and classification tasks. Compared to standard image coding methods, the ICA mixture model gives better encoding results because the codes are adapted to the structure of the data.
